[6] Parkman thus heralds the advent of this foreign arrival from sea:--"Alonely ship sailed up the St. Lawrence. The white whales floundering inthe Bay of Tadousac, and the wild duck diving as the foaming prow drewnear,--there was no life but these in all that watery solitude, twentymiles from shore to shore. The ship was from Honfleur, and was commandedby Samuel de Champlain. He was the Aeneas of a destined people, and in herwomb lay the embryo life of Canada." (_Pioneers of France in the NewWorld_, p. 296.)

CHAPTER III.

[8] Six French Governors died and were buried in Quebec--Samuel deChamplain, Count de Frontenac, M. de Mesy, De Callières, Marquis de laJonquière, and Marquis de Vaudreuil. Two English Governors--Lieut. Gen.Hope and the Duke of Richmond.

[10] John London MacAdam, the inventor of macadamized roads, was born inAyr, Scotland, on the 21st September, 1756, and died at Moffat on the 26thNovember, 1836. The Parliament of Great Britain voted £2,000 to thisbenefactor of the human race. Macadamized roads, like several other usefulinventions, met with many obstacles in Quebec. Some of the loudest todenounce this innovation were the carriage builders, who augured that goodroads, by decreasing the bills for repairs to carriages, would ruin theirindustry, that their "usefulness would be gone."

[12] The _Journal des Jésuites_, published by Geo. Desbarats in 1874,under the supervision of the learned Abbés Laverdière and Casgrain, fromthe copy in the Archives of the Quebec Seminary, though fragmentary,throws valuable light on many points in Canadian History. We clip theentry for 1st January, 1646, as summarized in the _Glimpses of the(Ursuline) Monastery_, respecting the custom of New Year's visits andpresents; this entry will further introduce us to some of the denizens ofnote in Quebec in 1646:--We meet with the first _seigneur_ of Beauport,Surgeon Robert Giffard, who had settled there in 1634; the Royal Engineerand Surveyor, Jean Bourdon; J. Bpte. Couillard, the ancestor of the QuebecCouillards, of late years connected by marriage with the Quebec DeLérys;Mdlle. de Repentigny, a high-born French lady; the founder of theUrsuline Monastery, the benevolent Madame de la Peltrie; the devotedSillery missionary, Father de Quen; without forgetting our old Scotchfriend, Pilot Abraham Martin, who, from the nature of the gift bestowed,it seems, could relish his glass, and evidently was not then what we nowcall a "Neal Dow man."

January, 1st, 1646.--The soldiers went to salute the Governor with theirguns; the inhabitants presented their compliments in a body. He wasbeforehand with us, and came here at seven o'clock to wish us a 'Happy NewYear,' addressing each of the Fathers one after another. I returned hisvisit after Mass. (Another time we must be beforehand with him.) M.Giffard also came to see us. The hospital nuns sent us a letter ofcompliment early in the morning; the Ursulines also, with beautifulpresents, wax candles, rosaries, a crucifix, and, at dinner, two excellentpigeon-pies. I sent them two images, in enamel, of St. Ignatius and StFrancois Xavier. We gave to M. Giffard the 'Life of Our Lord,' by F.Bonnet; to M. des Châtelets, a little volume of Drexellius on Eternity; toM. Bourdon, a telescope and compass, and to others, reliquaries, rosaries,medals, images, etc. We gave a crucifix to the woman who washes the Churchlinen, a bottle of rum to Abraham, and four handkerchiefs to his wife;some books of devotion to others, and two handkerchiefs to Robert Haché;he asked for more and we gave them to him. I went to see M. Giffard, M.Couillard and Mademoiselle de Repentigny. The Ursulines sent to beg Iwould come and see them before the end of the day. I went; and paid mycompliments also to Madame de la Peltrie, who had sent us presents. I wasnear leaving this out, which would have been a great oversight. At home, Igave to our Fathers and Brothers what I thought they would like best. Ihad given beforehand to F. De Quen, for Sillery, all he chose to take frommy room, and a choice present for Father Masse."--_Journal_, p. 24.

[15] The "dear man," in a concluding paragraph, dated 1st July, 1766, toJohn Temple, Esq., Pall-Mall, London, says: "Adieu! I am going to attend avery handsome French lady, who allows me the honour to drive her _encalashe_ to our Canadian Hyde Park, the road to St. Foix, where youwill see forty or fifty calashes, with pretty women in them, paradingevery evening."--(_History of Emily Montague, Vol. I., p. 25._) Thehandsome Colonel Rivers, who so fancied his drives on the Foye road in1766, the writer was told by Hon. W. Sheppard, was no other than thegallant Colonel Henry Caldwell, Wolfe's Assistant Quartermaster-General atthe battle of the Plains, in 1759--the "Laird of Belmont"--who died atQuebec in 1810, a friend, no doubt, of the clever Mrs. Brookes who wrotethis novel.

[23] The mode of consulting a Roman lawyer was this: the lawyer was placedon an elevated seat, the client, coming up to him said _Licet consulere?_The lawyer answered, _consule_. The matter was then proposed, and ananswer returned very shortly, thus: _Quaero an existimes_, vel, _id jusest, nec ne? Secundum ea, quae proponuntur, existimo, placet, puto._--(_Adams' Roman Antiquities_, 201.)

Lawyers gave their opinions either by word of mouth or in writing,commonly without any reasons annexed, but not always.

The lawyers of these days do not, as a rule, see their clients quite soearly in the morning as those of Rome did.

[25] It lines a space in rear, on which the Imperial Government erected,for the British troops in garrison, the Military Hospital. Since 1872, itis used as a temporary Court House, in lieu of the old Court House, builtin 1814, and destroyed by fire in 1871. A high wall to the south-east,encloses a lofty eminence surmounted by a flagstaff--the _Mont Carmel_mentioned by La Potherie, Charlevoix and other old writers. The French hada _Cavalier_ here. A little Eden of flowers, adjacent to the residence ofthe member for the County of Quebec, Hon. Adolphe P. Caron, Minister ofMilitia, and son of the late Lieutenant-Governor, Hon. R. E. Caron, nowenlivens this eminence. On the same side of the street, about one hundredfeet to the east, facing Parloir street, still exists a high-peaked oldtenement, to which a livery stable is attached. This house is said tooccupy the site on which, in 1759 stood the dwelling of Dr. Arnoux, Jr.,the French surgeon under whose roof the gallant Montcalm was brought aboutnoon, on his way from the lost battle of the Plains.

[27] In accepting the _Château St. Louis_ as the spot where Montcalmexpired, we still wish to leave the question an open one. Did Montcalmexpire at the _Château_, under Dr. Arnoux's roof, at the General Hospital,as averred by Capt. John Knox, or, possibly, under his own roof on theramparts, near Hope Gate? This point is not yet cleared up. Seedisquisition in _Album du Touriste_ "Où est mort Montcalm?"

[28] On the 9th July, 1755, De Beaujeu won this brilliant victory.

[29] The 8th July, 1758, has been rendered famous by Montcalm and hisregulars and Canadian militia at Carillon.

[30] Louis Honoré Fréchette, born at the town of Levis, opposite toQuebec--went through a classical course at the Quebec Seminary--studiedfor the Bar, recently member of parliament for his native county, Levis,under the present Judge for the Kamouraska District, Hon. HenriTaschereau. Represented his native county of Levis in the CommonsParliament from 1873 to 1878. His poetical effusions were published, atQuebec, in 1863, in a small volume, intituled "Mes Loisirs"; in 1877, amore extensive collection was published under the title of "Pêle-Mêle." Hewas awarded in 1880, by the _Académie Française_ of Paris, the _Grand PrixMonthyon_, 2,000 francs. In April, 1881, Queen's College conferred on Mr.Fréchette the degree of Doctor of Laws, and McGill University also madehim an LL.D. Since his marriage in Montreal to Mdlle. Beaudry, the poetresides in that city.

[39] The name of Lennox in 1819, was indeed a familiar one in the highwaysand byways of old Stadacona. There were three brothers, we are told, sonsof the Duke; Lord Charles, Lord William Pitt, Lord Arthur Lennox; morethan one of them are said to have had a hand in some of the practicaljokes so much to the fancy of Quebec military men, barristers, &c, in1819, some of whom still survive, demure grandfathers, at present.

Born atIrvine, in Ayrshire, on the 2nd May, 1779, died at Greenock, 11th April,1839. He came to Canada in 1827, as Secretary to the Canada Land Company,which he had originated, and one of the five Commissioners (ColonelCockburn, Sir John Harvey, John Galt, Mr. McGillivray and Mr. Davidson)named by England for the valuation of the Province of Upper Canada. Thisremarkable man was the founder of Galt, Goderich, Guelph, and otherwestern cities, and was the father of three sons, John, Thomas and SirAlexander Tilloch, the last at present our _chargé d'affaires_ inLondon.

[43] Adam, the oldest; John lost at sea on his voyage to England, in thefall of 1775; and Matthew, who, later on, we think was a partner in theold firm of Lymburner & Crawford, came to his end, in a melancholy mannerat the Falls of Montmorency, about 1823. Were they all brothers? we cannotsay. Adam and John were.

[44] Mrs. Widow Arch. Campbell closed her long career at Quebec, inNovember, 1880.

[47] The old homestead, successively owned by Messrs. Timothy H. Dunn andJoseph Shehyn, M.P.P., and now by Mr. J. O. Vallières, was erected in 1812for Capt. Benjamin LeMoine, Canadian Militia, the writer's father.

[48] A detailed sketch of this great educational institution, descriptiveof its origin and constitution, galleries of paintings, museum, libraryetc., appears at page 361 of "Quebec, Past and Present," to which thereader is referred. We purpose to note the changes which have taken placesince the publication of that work only.

[49] In 1808, among other notabilities on the _Rue des Pauvres_, wefind that, as appears by a notarial deed of transfer, in the Woolseyestate, before J. Plante, N.P., 28th March, 1808, a grand old relic of theCanadian _noblesse_, la Baronne de Longueuil, the widow of the lateCaptain David Alexander Grant, of the 94th regiment--to whom she had beenunited in wedlock at Quebec, on the 7th May, 1781. She then dwelt there ina house belonging to her husband's uncle, the Honorable William Grant (whohad died at Quebec in 1805), though her usual abode was on the picturesquefamily property--on the Island of St. Helen, opposite Montreal. Thisisland was purchased by the Imperial authorities for military purposesabout 1815. The dignified, accomplished and queenly old Baronne expired atMontreal on the 7th February, 1841, aged 86 years. Her grandson, CharlesColmore Grant, of London England, now bears the title of Baron deLongueuil, in virtue of the gracious recognition of our Sovereign, as setforth in the London (Royal) _Gazette_ of the 4th December, 1880, andCanada _Gazette_ of the 21st January, 1881.

[50] The following was composed by the late Hon J. Sewell, Chief Justiceof Lower Canada:--

ADDRESS

_Spoken at the Opening of the Quebec Royal Theatre, February_ 15,1832.

Ye sons of pity, whose kind acts proclaim How much you glory in true English fame, In fame which rests on deeds of solid worth And kindred feelings for the peopled earth: Ye too, fair dames, whose daily conduct shows How much ye feel in heart, for others woes Who by compassion led, have hither come To grace these walls and soften mis'rys doom, We bid you welcome all--and what you see [_Looking around the House_] Thus dedicate to you and charity [_Bowing to the audience_] By the kind bounty which you now bestow You will assuage the pangs of human woe, To infant suffering and to aged grief You will afford prompt solace and relief, The famished penitent who stole for bread Snatched from his wants will once more raise his head The sickly wretch upon his bed of straw Will pine no longer, but will quickly draw From your resources, the comfort he requires To sooth his pains, and quench a fever's fires; And houseless strangers will no longer meet Their fete in storms, and perish in the street.

[54] LOSSING'S FIELD BOOK, Vol. I, p. 195, thus describes the dress of theinvaders: "Each man of the three rifle companies (Morgan's, Smith's, andHendrick's) bore a rifle barreled gun, a tomahawk or small axe, and a longknife, usually called a scalping knife, which served for all purposes inthe woods. His underdress, by no means in a military style, was covered bya deep ash-coloured hunting shirt, legging and moccasins if the lattercould be procured. It was a silly fashion of those times for riflemen toape the manners of savages." "The Canadians who first saw these (men)emerge from the woods, said they were _vêtus en toile_--clothed inlinen. The word _toile_ was changed to _tôle_, iron plated. By a mistakeof a single word the fears of the people were greatly increased, for thenews spread that the mysterious army that descended from the wildernesswas clad in _sheet-iron_."

[54a] "The flag used by what was called the Continental troops, of whichthe force led into Canada by Arnold and Montgomery was a part, was ofplain crimson, and perhaps sometimes it may have had a border of black. Onthe 1st January, 1776, the army was organized, and the new flag thenadopted was first unfurled at Cambridge, at the head-quarters of GeneralWashington, the present residence of the poet Longfellow. That flag wasmade up of thirteen stripes, seven red and six white, but the Union wasthe Union of the British flag of that day, blue bearing the Cross of StAndrew combined with the cross of St George and a diagonal red cross forIreland. This design was used by the American Army till after the 14thJune, 1777, when Congress ordered that the Union should be changed, theUnion of the English flag removed and in its place there should be asimple blue field with thirteen white stars, representing the thirteencolonies declared to be states. Since that time there has been no changein the flag except that a star is added as each new state is admitted. Thepresent number being thirty-eight."--W. O. HOWELLS.

[55] _Extract from the Quebec Gazette, May 1st_, 1794.

"CLUB."

"The Gentlemen who served in the Garrison of Quebec in 1775-76, areacquainted that their Anniversary Dinner will be held at Ferguson's Hotelon Tuesday, 6th May.

[57] Natanis and his brother Sabatis, and seventeen other (Abenaquis)Indians, the nephews and friends of Sabatis, marched with Arnold toQuebec.--(_Henry's Journal_, page 75.) This may account for theirsuccessful venture through the trackless wilderness between Massachusettsand Quebec.

[58] Faucher de Saint Maurice.

[59] A memorable Indian Council was held in the court of the Jesuits'College, on 31st August, 1666.

[60] Mr. Faucher de Saint Maurice having been, in 1878, charged by thePremier, Hon. Mr. Joly, to watch the excavations and note the discoveries,in a luminous report, sums up the whole case. From this document, amongother things, we glean that the remains of the three persons of male sexare those of:

1. Père François du Péron, who died at Fort St. Louys (Chambly) 10th November, 1665, and was conveyed to Quebec for burial.

2. Père Jean de Quen, the discoverer of Lake St. John, who died at Quebec, on 8th October, 1659, from the effects of a fever contracted in attending on some of the passengers brought here that summer by the French ship "Saint André."

3. Frère Jean Liégeois, scalped 29th May, 1655, by the Agniers at Sillery--(the historian Ferland assigns as the probable spot, the land on which the late Lieutenant-Governor Caron built his mansion "Clermont," now occupied by Thomas Beckett, Esquire.) The remains of this missionary, when excavated, were headless--which exactly agrees with the entry in the _Jesuits' Journal_, May, 1655, which states that Jean Liégeois was scalped--his head cut off and left at Sillery, while his mutilated body, discovered the next day by the Algonquins, the allies of the French, was brought to Sillery, (probably the Jesuits' residence, the same solid old structure close to the foundations of the Jesuits' chapel and monument at the foot of the Sillery Hill, which many here have seen), from whence it was conveyed to the Lower Town in a boat and escorted to the Jesuits' College, with the ceremonies of the R. C. Church.

[61] Three Nuns of the Hôtel-Dieu Convent, according to authorities quotedby Mr. Faucher, were buried in the vault (_caveau_) of the Jesuits'Chapel. The sisterhood had been allowed the use of a wing of the Jesuits'College, where they removed after the conflagration of the 7th June, 1755,which destroyed their hospital.

4. _Mère_ Marie Marthe Desroches de Saint-François-Xavier, a young woman of 28 years, who succumbed to small-pox on the 16th August, 1755.

5. _Mère_ de l'Enfant-Jésus, who expired on the 12th May, 1756.

6. _Mère_ de Saint-Monique, who died in July, 1756, the victim of her devotion in ministering to the decimated crew of the ship "Leopard," sunk in the port by order of Government to arrest the spread of the pestilential disease which had raged on the passage. Mr. Faucher closes his able report with a suggestion that a monument ought to be raised, to commemorate the labours and devotion of the Jesuits, on the denuded area on which stood their venerable College.
